Flora the guide is really interesting to spend time with. She happily pointed out other 'non potter' curiosities between official stops. The tour is well planned and all the relevant photographs are available. I will be doing other Pigeon tours. I might even do this one again.

ガイドのマイクさんがとても親切丁寧に写真と説明で回ってくれました。ただ、歩くスピードは結構速いです。ネットなどでは2時間と言う話しでしたが、30分方強延長してくださって楽しかったです。
